    How Much Is God Worth- The Pearl Series

    Contributed by Bob Marcaurelle on Sep 8, 2025
     | 507 views

    When we look at our possessions we need to see where Jesus stands among them.

    Matt. 13:44-46 HOW MUCH IS GOD WORTH? (The Parables of the Pearl and the Treasure) These two parables are like twins. They are very similar but they also have marks of individuality. They both teach the truth that the supreme blessing, the priceless discovery in life, is the discovery of God. ...read more

    You Are Invited R.s.v.p.

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 11, 2025
     | 179 views

    This message proclaims God’s gracious invitation to salvation, pictured in Jesus’ parable of the wedding feast. It calls hearers to accept the free gift of Christ’s righteousness—the wedding garment—and to live daily in surrendered fellowship.

    Introduction: The Search and the Invitation Picture the best church potluck you’ve ever attended. The tables sag under the weight of steaming casseroles, fragrant breads, fruit and desserts that dare you to try “just one bite.” Everyone brings something, but nobody goes hungry. Now imagine the ...read more

    God lovingly invites everyone to His eternal banquet; true acceptance means wearing Christ’s robe of righteousness, not our own efforts.

    Section 1 – Introduction: The Search and the Invitation Picture the best church potluck you’ve ever attended. Tables sag under the weight of steaming casseroles, vege meatloaf, fragrant breads, and desserts that dare you to try “just one bite.” Everyone brings something, but nobody goes ...read more

    God gave clear instructions to the Priests about what they were expected to do. This included not offering incense which did not meet God’s specifications.

    Guilt And Shame Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Nov 7, 2024
     | 789 views

    If we are ever to fully recover from Guilt and Shame we must choose the spiritual experience of accepting God’s offer of grace and mercy via Jesus’ actions on our behalf.

    We continue our series of escape by looking at another area of ourselves that keeps us from experiencing the freedom Jesus’ coming, suffering, dying and rising offer us. The last couple of weeks we spoke about escaping bad decisions, this week I’d like to explore overcoming the lasting effects of ...read more

    Sermon # 32 - The Robe Of Repentance Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 6, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 616 views

    The King of Nineveh took off his robe and put on sackcloth and sat in ashes to signify his humble repentance before the Almighty God. There is nothing God can’t do with a repentant church and true revival will break forth when this happens.

    We read in Jonah 3:6, “When the king of Nineveh heard about it, he got up from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth, and sat down in ashes.” (GNB) Jonah was sent by God to the city of Nineveh, and the message that Jonah preached was that the city would be destroyed in forty days.

    Admit One Lost Sheep

    Contributed by Bruce Lee on Jun 2, 2025
     | 378 views

    Luke 15 follows sooner after Jesus tells the story about a great Banquet, in which the “poor, the maimed, the lame, and the blind” replace the anticipated guest at a great feast.

    “Admit One Lost Sheep” “Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes ...read more

    The Galatians wanted to put restrictions on the new Gentile converts in their church. But Paul put his foot down...

    The little churches in Galatia were facing a serious issue—and they didn’t know what to do about it. It may seem surprising, but their problem revolved around the fact that they were growing. And the new people (there seemed to be more and more of them all the time!) just weren’t fitting in. It ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 655 views

    Grief is a journey we all experience at some point in life. The loss of a loved one, whether expected or sudden, leaves a void that words cannot easily fill. In our sorrow, we long for comfort, for answers, and for peace. But where do we turn?

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,088 views

    Prayer is one of the greatest privileges we have as believers. It is our direct communication with God, our means of expressing our dependence on Him, and the way through which we align our hearts with His will.

    Go! And Be Transformed Through Prayer Introduction C.S. Lewis once said, “I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God. It changes me.” Prayer is one of the greatest ...read more

    Reverence lost brings pain; reverence restored brings peace—holiness mishandled hurts, but holiness honored heals hearts and makes us whole.

    The Night God Slept in Ashdod The night air in Ashdod still smelled of sweat and smoke. Victory drums thudded through the narrow streets; torches painted the walls with leaping fire. Philistine soldiers marched home shouting the name of their god — Dagon! — and dragging behind them the prize of ...read more

    As a Christian, should I give a 10th of my income to God each week (should I tithe)?

    A 6th grade class Sunday School class teacher brought a pan of brownies to class and set the pan on a small desk. Then, she gave each child a slip of paper marked with a household expense: house payment; phone bill' credit card bill; car payment; entertainment, and so on. Then she picked ...read more
